Following their untaxing match at Old Trafford over the weekend, England head to Skopje for a tougher task against Macedonia (kick-off 8,00 pm). Both teams have one win under their belt, and McClaren looks set to hand Steve Gerrard his 50th cap following his goal and commanding performance on Saturday. This is preceded by Scotland’s match against Lithuania at 5.00 pm. MW

The Saatchi Gallery: a Private View Artsworld, 8.00 pm

Charles Saatchi’s County Hall gallery in London can be more provocative than it is interesting, sometimes displaying the kind of art that seems to demand more of the public than it did of the artist. As Emilia Fox guides us round, however, unpicking certain pieces’ implications, the merits of the enterprise become very obvious. SH

How Clean Is Your House? Channel 4, 8.00 pm

You Are What You Eat Channel 4, 8.30 pm Three years ago, Kim and Aggie breezed onto Channel 4 in a waft of potpourri and pearls, fresh as a newly-scrubbed loo. But the third series already smells like a week-old ashtray.

The same is true of the second returning Channel 4 warhorse, as pantomime villain Dr Gillian McKeith scours playgrounds for crimes against lunchboxes, stamping on children’s sandwiches to show mum what a rotten job she’s doing. There’s a voyeuristic thrill to be had from poking around others’ poor habits, but we all know the script. As Dr G treats Lisa like a war criminal, at least Anne and Adam are happy with their spotless home.

“Now we can start thinking about other things, maybe even seeing other people,” says Adam. “Maybe even seeing the carpet,” deadpans Anne. ME

A well-deserved transfer to BBC 1 for this excellent genealogy show, which puts famous faces in touch with their distant ancestors. First up is Barbara Windsor, who knows little of her lineage as her mother’s snobbery distanced her from the less well-heeled branches of her family tree. Barbara’s search begins in east London, where she learns that her forefathers met an unfortunate end in the poorhouse.

She is delighted to discover an Irish connection, so travels to Cork, where she generously shoulders the blame for English conduct during the Irish potato famine. The series blends the personal with the factual, and Babs is a very affable guide to her heritage, without the surfeit of emotion that has over-baked previous efforts. ME

Two questions spring to mind. Why has the charming Helen Baxendale been away for so long and why would she choose this implausible lightweight fluff to mark her return? With the best will towards her and the excellent Patrick Baladi, it’s impossible to ignore the gaping holes in this silly drama.

Annie, an independent single mum who seems perfectly content with her rural existence, considers uprooting her seven-year-old son to New York after a couple of bunk-ups with Mack, a debonair advertising executive. The dialogue is facile, the acting (beyond the central pair) wooden and the plot full of inconsistencies. But there are some lovely shots of woods. ME

9/11 Millionaire Widows Channel 4, 9.00 pm

After 9/11, the US government handed out billions of dollars in compensation to those widowed by the attacks. But to get the money, the women had to waive their right to sue for negligence, leaving many with a moral dilemma. Four women who accepted the cash tell how it has brought them little solace and more suffering, causing family rifts, estrangement from friends and public disapproval. ME

Baghdad ER/ Gunner Palace More4, 9.00 pm/10.20 pm

Two extraordinary films, both UK premieres, close this channel’s look at modern warfare. Emmy award-winning documentary Baghdad ER is a straight, admiring look at the work of the men (and women) who work in the city’s American Combat Support Hospital.

We see horrific injuries treated in largely unsophisticated conditions, and people going about their jobs unfazed by what the world thinks about the whole business. As in Michael Tucker’s more interesting Gunner Palace, the question, implicitly, is at what point professionalism becomes heroism.

The interest of both films comes from the access that film crews have secured. Tucker talks to the soldiers of 2-3 Field Artillery, based in what was once Uday Hussein’s “pleasure palace”. We see them questioning their right to be where they are and – more usually – their brittle unwillingness to think deeply about the ramifications of American activities. SH

Former Big Brother contestant Nikki Grahame is probably one of the most extraordinary celebrities yet invented. Despite coming fifth in the contest (not even as good as Jade Goody), here she is with her own show, presumably having recovered from (literally) crying over spilt milk. Andy Warhol’s five minutes is now spread over six weeks, during which she experiments with menial jobs. SH

Shock Docs: Soldiers’ Trophy Pictures Five, 11.00 pm

Anybody with a link to the armed forces will know how much their culture is influenced by stories, tall tales and folklore. But the camera, especially the digital camera phone, has altered the tradition of taking home pictures and souvenirs from war zones. Looking at Iraq and the Falklands in particular, this documentary examines sometimes worrying developments. MW

Film choice

The Fisher King (1991) Sky Cinema 2, 9.00 pm

Robin Williams is on a quest for the Holy Grail; Jeff Bridges plays a Howard Stern-style shock jock who inadvertently sparked a killing spree after one of his radio phone-ins. Trapped in his guilt, Bridges is wandering the streets when he ends up offering Williams money to help with his quest.

Already, this fantasy film has all the hallmarks of its director Terry Gilliam’s usual eccentric imagination. The two team up, and go looking more actively for both the Holy Grail and a kind of redemption. They find it, in a way, and the whole business takes on a pleasingly greater meaning. MW

Radio choice by Gillian Reynolds

The Search for Iraq’s TreasureRadio 4, 11.00 am

All credit to good old Radio 4, this must be the fourth programme (at least) I’ve heard about how people are keeping track of priceless pieces looted from Iraq’s national museum when Baghdad was invaded in 2003.

Dr Neil Brodie of the Illicit Antiquities Centre at Cambridge University sets out to discover whether professional thieves were involved, where the treasures have gone, if they’ll ever go back.

IconoclastsRadio 4, 8.00 pm

First of three programmes, hosted by the Royal Society of Arts in London, each one part declaration, part debate, in which unpopular cases are made, then argued with experts on the platform and the audience.

First up is philosopher Peter Singer on why we should give animals the same consideration as we do humans, when the killing of people can be justified and why affluent lifestyles are indefensible.
